Hi Comics!
Hope this edition of the Rubber Chicken Gazette finds you all well & having a great summer. The fact that it's been so long since the last Chicken should tell you that it's been crazy around here at StandUp Academy & StandUp Productions. We have lots of shows going on at the Ice House Main Room & Flappers Main Room (email us for spots)! And the new classes are showcasing at the Ice House Main Room Aug 21-23 (lineups below)!! We are also in the early planning stages of Year 2 of the Eagle Rock Comedy Festival and getting ready for next session's stand-up & improv/sketch workshops at the Ice House starting Sept 10.

Lots of stuff below. Enjoy the Rubber Chicken. Hope to see you all soon at the grad shows and/or in one of our shows or workshops! Love, Bobbie
